Leadership & team development

Collaboration & knowledge sharing

• You are part of both the Brussels design team and the Creative Directors network within B2Ai, led by the Chief Creative Director.
• You actively participate in workshops and exchange moments where vision, innovation and feedback are central.

What you bring

• At least 10 years of experience as a Senior Design Architect, including several years in a coaching role.
• A highly developed creative and conceptual vision.
• You are a motivational leader who helps colleagues grow – from interns to senior staff.
• You think strategically, but always remain in touch with the reality of the construction process.
• You are eager to learn and innovation-oriented, and enjoy sharing your knowledge with others.
• You have a strong sense of quality, efficiency, planning and design coherence.
• You communicate clearly and inspiringly, both internally and externally.
• You guide clients through the design process with confidence and conviction.
• You are critical and analytical, and engage in dialogue with clients and partners.
• You function well in a multidisciplinary context and build bridges between teams.
